The 4th IT guest lecture at the Dubrovnik campus was held on
Monday, October 23rd . Our guest speaker was prof. Elizabeth Lawley, professor
in the Interactive Games & Media department at RIT in Rochester, NY, where
she also founded and serves as director for the Lab for Social Computing in the
MAGIC (Media, Art, Games, Interaction, and Creativity) Center. Prof. Lawley shared her insight into
interactive games and media with interested students of the Web and Mobile
Computing program.
During the spring semester of 2015, prof. Lawley was a
Fulbright Scholar in Dubrovnik, developing new classes in Games and Tourism. Her
current teaching and research interests focus on games and tourism, social
computing technologies (including collaborative information creation and
retrieval), and social aspects of game design and play.
